A large goblin stood in the middle of the throne room, staring blankly at them. Danny
drew his sword and pointed it at the goblin. The goblin did the same with his blade: a
double-bladed staff sheathed on his back. “Get out.” Danny ordered sternly. The
goblin just stood there with a smirk look on its face. Danny stood scowling at the green
beast standing in the room. “Get out or I’ll kill you!” Danny yelled angrily.

Danny jumped at the goblin, which swiftly dodged the attack, and jumped out the window.
To David’s surprise, Danny followed it out the window. “Hondora nei!” Blue
lightning shot out of Danny’s fingers and struck the goblin below. The shock sent two
thousand volts of electricity into its spine and nervous system. The shock then jumped to
its heart, killing it. The goblin fell limply to the ground.

Two more goblins began scaling the castle wall. Danny landed on one of the goblins. Its
skull cracked from the impact of Danny’s cleats. Danny drew his sword and stabbed the
other goblin in the back. The limp goblins and Danny fell to the ground. Danny landed
softly on his feet while the goblins fell with a thud.

David looked out the window and saw five or more goblins repeatedly slamming a tree trunk
into the castle door. How did they get past the moat? David thought. Then, David saw
one of Danny’s crocodiles crawled out of the moat, bite onto its leg, and dragged it
into the water. The goblin splashed and flailed in terror as the crocodile struggled to
pull it under. Other crocodiles swam over and grabbed another goblin by the leg, dragging
it under.

The log finally collapsed onto three goblins. Goblin bodies floated in the moat. This
can’t be real. David thought. Suddenly three goblins bust down the door. Looks like
it’s three against one. David thought. He drew his new, gold sword Danny gave him. He
lunged at the small troop of goblins. One of the goblins slammed him across the room.
What was that spell Danny used? He thought. “Tiora urna deide!” David’s gold
sword became cloaked in a red flame. Not what I wanted, but this should do just fine.
The goblins backed up a step.

David swung the blade and hit one of the stunned goblins. The hit landed, amputating its
arm off. The goblin growled to the others. The other goblins jumped at him. He stabbed
one in the heart and ducked as the still air born, alive goblin tried to chop his head
off. He turned around and jabbed the still aflame sword into the goblin’s back.
